  1. I emailed Gibson about this and someone replied saying that their metal cleaner is fine to use. Then today he emailed again to say that he's just found it isn't safe and NOT to use it!! A suggested alternative would have been nice! After all this is Gibson.
  2. Thanks for your advise guys. I think I'll use a small amount of the metal cleaner (it does say low abrassion) and buff gently. And start with the bridge. And trust the fact that I'm using gibson cleaner which comes with no warning about gold. It's strange that nobody seems to have used this stuff!
  3. I had the exact same dilema last year! Had originally set my mind on a white studio. Then saw the red and loved it too. But the more I looked at the red ones the more I thought that they should have gold hardware. And the whites have this but I was falling more for the red colour. Eventually I stumbled across a Wine Red standard with gold hardware which I hadn't budgeted for but just had to have it. What am I saying? Oh yeh.. stick with the white, coz once you get an image of a wine red with gold you'll be forever frustrated that it's not quite perfect. Unless you like crome. And like someone else said, you don't see many whites.
  4. Well I'd say it definately needs a clean as it looks like it's trying to corrode and I want to nip that in the bud. So what do you folks think about the metal cleaner which comes with the restoration kit? Just want to know if anyone is opposed to using it with gold. Or is it perfectly safe?
  5. Hey comrades, I have a Les Paul standard with gold pick-ups and tuners and I'm wondering what is the safest way to clean them? I have the gibson vintage restoration kit and am wondering if the metal cleaner which comes with it is ok to use with gold?
